Trending online today is the news which reminds us that Steve Job's father was a Syrian refugee.

Obama made a solid point yesterday tho. Some of the Repug presidential candidates who don't want US to take any Syrian refugees are themselves sons of refugees. (One whose father was a bartender and his mother a maid. If I hear that story one more time... )
Some people like to paint others with a huge brush, especially if they aren't lily-white, the way Americans pose to be.
If only to ease the pressure of Europe (millions, compared to 10k), America has to play its part. I just hope there is no change of heart when the refugees are a little tanned, afterall they do burn a bit on the high seas!
